Our Experience at the Childcare and Education Expo in Coventry: Highlights and Reflections
UK Care Week 2024
Reflecting on UK Care Week 2024: A Recap of Innovations and Insights
From March 20th to 21st, the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) in Birmingham buzzed with activity as the UK Care Week 2024 unfolded, bringing together professionals, experts, and stakeholders from across the care sector.
As the premier event in the field, UK Care Week offered a platform for discussions, networking, and showcasing innovations aimed at shaping the future of care provision in the UK.
For Almas Industries and our good friends InVentry it was a busy two days, meeting some great new contacts and catching up with old friends.
We caught up with Jayne Connery
Our friend Jayne Connery from Care Campaign for the Vulnerable was a keynote speaker at the event and it was great to listening to her talk on the critical role of providers in handling safeguarding incidents and explore the importance of early and thorough engagement, emphasising the need to maintain a detailed chronology and comprehensive evidence.
This led to people asking questions about the part CCTV and Lone Worker solutions can play in the safety in the care industry.
Lone worker safety holds significant importance within the UK care sector due to various factors.
Firstly, the nature of care work often involves interactions with vulnerable individuals who may exhibit unpredictable behavior, increasing the risk of violence or aggression towards lone workers.
Without immediate support available, ensuring the safety of these workers becomes paramount to prevent harm and maintain a secure working environment.
Lone Worker Solutions
We know the challenges workers face when they are out in the field or working in isolated areas and we are serious about lone worker safety and helping businesses keep their team safe. When speaking to people at UK Care Week we discovered a lot of questions about how it works and what does it mean for the employees and the business. Find out more about our Lone Worker solutions.
